This process must be done with the Andorran government, entirely in Catalan. Moreover, the name of the company must be established in Catalan. It will take about 10 days to receive an answer to your request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to facilitate your task, especially since each step related to this project will be done with the official language of the country, our Gestoria is at your disposal to accompany you.

This will become the brand name or the appellation by which the customers will be able to identify the company. Within the framework of a creation of companies, the corporate name is what one also denominates sometimes by the corporate name. In a more technical definition, it is the name through which the company will be registered in the Trade and Companies Register. It is also through this name that it will carry out its activities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any company, whether it is a joint stock company, a non-profit company or a cooperative must have a name to identify it legally. It will be established in the articles of incorporation of the company to be created and will appear in many of its documents such as invoices or business cards.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mc-expatriation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/une-denomination-sociale.jpg\" alt=\"une d\u00e9nomination sociale\" class=\"wp-image-1291 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mc-expatriation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/une-denomination-sociale.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.mc-expatriation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/une-denomination-sociale-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mc-expatriation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/une-denomination-sociale-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mc-expatriation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/une-denomination-sociale-380x253.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Submission of a business name registration application form<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The registration of the company name must be approved by the staff of the Company Registry. Requirements imposed by the \"Law on Partnerships and Business Names\" must be strictly observed. The more unique it remains, the more likely it will be validated quickly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Procedures in the Principality&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the case of Andorra, the application to reserve a company name is the first step in the creation of a company. In addition to choosing a name in Catalan, it must also correspond to its activity. In order to speed up the process and comply with the law, it is advisable to have three names. These names will be chosen by priority and will be checked to see if they are already used by other companies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the difference between \"corporate name\", \"business name\" and \"trade name\"?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The companies, once constituted and under control, can have different names: corporate name or business name, commercial name or sign. If the procedures are not always the same in France or in other European countries, they are more particular in Andorra.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The corporate name or business name&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This name identifies companies as a legal entity. In simple terms, it is the synonym of a family name for a natural person. It is needed when registering the company in the National Register of Commerce and Companies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The trade name<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This business name will be found on the business card, various contracts, invoices and other documents. In this case, it will be accompanied by the legal notices. It may also be found on the accounting documents.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The sign&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is also the sign that will identify the establishment in its geographical area. It will also be the one that will be displayed on the front of the business premises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reserving a company name is one of the first steps you must take if you want to create a company in Andorra.
